Sunce Winery 2021 Sangiovese, Santo Giodano, Carneros

Gold Medal Sonoma County Harvest Fair 2023. This Brunello-style wine boasts grape harvest aromas, perhaps multiple vitis vinifera fermenting at the same time—intense aromatics of red fruit and cedar wood that go on and on. Very well made, pristine, chiseled and sharp—but bold and generous at the same time. There’s a touch of bitter almond and alfalfa followed by softer tones of pureed berry and an exotic masculine spice with a hint of leather chaps. Decidedly foreign with interspersions of an unnamable black fruit, as well as rum cake, dry fudge, prune, black pepper, pipe tobacco, and cured meat. Case of 12 bottles. No ship states include: AL, AK, DE, KY, MA, MS, MT, NH, OK, and UT ** Flat rate shipping and tax of $60 for the month of Oct to the Continental US **
